Wet feet

So I found the wet spare wheel problem, the seal on the rear light had been refit incorrectly.


Now I have another water problem. The rear passengers feet are getting wet, the carpet is completely soaked!!!!

Any ideas people?
Thanks and happy new year.

First thing I'd do is take out all carpets and dry off what's wet , could be leaking  through rear lights , sunroof  , door seals , boot seals etc ! Once dried off sit inside the car with carpet stripped and see if you can see water entering whilst someone on the outside hoses /washes the car . 👍 don't forget to treat all rust you find to prevent rot !

What are the condition of your Scraper Seals on the Windows.

Are your door Pucker drains clean?
In the middle of the Front Door Bottom there is a Rubber Plug, is it missing?

Door skin pucker


plug on the door bottom edge.

What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?

They all start with GOOD Grounds.

Where are my DIY Links?

Probably the plastic behind the door cards not fitted correctly. Don't rely on the window scraper seals to stop the water that runs down the window and enters the door. Thats why they have drain holes in the bottom of the door. The original door liner plastics had a secondary flap fitted to them that deflects the water away from the inner frame into the door drains. Easy test is to pour water down the door window and see if you get water coming inside from under the door card. Failing that I would look around the wind screen. Your Campaign wont have rubber bungs in the doors. Well Ive never seen them on a Campaign.
